Thread: Damage Mitigation and what it means to you
With the next big patch, publish, what ever damage mitigation will be hitting the scene.
What does it do?
-From what I am told Damage mitigation reduces the range from minimun damage to maximun damage.
Level 1 Damage mitigation 20%, Level 2 mitigation 40%, and level 3 Mitigation 60%
Lets take a fake weapon example:
Weapon X Damage is 100-200 (Easy Example:smileywink
Against Level 1 mitigation weapon X becomes 100-180.
Against Level 2 mitigation weapon X becomes 100-160.
Finnally-
Against Level 3 mitigation weapon x becomes 100-140.
As you can see minimum damage has become a very important number, maybe more important than maximum infact.
Just a heads up from a rifleman.
This only effects PVP really, and seeing how SOE has already destroyed PVP with recent patch this is just another useless change that they are doing instead of actually fixing existing problems with the game
Don't be too sure my weaponsmith friend.
Creatures now Block, Counterattack, and dodge. Mitigation may be added to MOB's also.
